~Welcome to the Oc Zone~

Hi, my name is Virus, I’m an adult and I use it/she pronouns. My main blog is @theargonianvampire (Dnf my main if you’re a minor.)

This is my oc blog where I talk about my ocs. (That’s crazy….) Here’s some info on a few of them.

Thrill of The Hunt (OC Canon)

ToTH is an oc world where humans and monsters have lived aside one and other since the beginning of time. Any creature you can imagine, from D&D to ancient mythology likely exists in the world of ToTH. Monster Hunter is considered a legitimate and respected job path, akin to advanced animal control. Not all ‘Hunts’ actually result in the death of a monster. Hunters answer to The World Hunters Association (or W.H.A for short) for bounties and contracts. Not all hunters are in it to help, though…

Victoria -

My special booboo bear who commits atrocities. Vic is a fae child born of a Faery and a Human. She is in deep denial about this, however, and insists that she’s human.

She’s a Monster Hunter, but only because she wants only to kill strange and exotic creatures. Most everything she does is purely to amuse herself, and sate her sadistic tendencies, but she also has a strict code of what she finds morally acceptable or not.

Tag: #Vic

Byrd -

Queen of starring in the AMVs I make in my head. Byrd is a Harpy princess, and former children’s T.V star from a realm in the sky.

She became a Monster Hunter in attempts to strengthen her understanding of the human realm, and the challenges they face on the daily. She is not always accepted by the humans around her, despite truly only wanting to do right by them, and the Mythical beasts they’re at odds with.

Tag: #Byrd

Abbi -

There is something deeply wrong with him 👍🏻🖤 Doctor Abbisid was once a normal human man, but now is anything but. His mind and heart have been altered by dark forces beyond comprehension, resulting in his identity no longer existing.

Those who look at him will see the face they expect to see. If you expect nothing, you will only see a messy blob where a human face should be. Not much is known about him, besides the fact that he was once a regular alchemist working for the World Hunters Association, and is now somehow… Changed. Some say they’ve seen his body twist in unholy ways, but those are surely just stories.

New age singer Enya is born Eithne Pádraigín Ní Bhraonáin in Dore, Gweedore, County Donegal, Ireland. "Eithne" is pronounced "Enya," so she goes with that spelling to avoid confusion.

Enya: die mysteriöse Sängerin, die seit Jahren in einem Schloss mit 10 Katzen „eingesperrt“ lebt Wo ist Enya? Was ist aus der engelsgleichen Irin geworden, die in den 1990er Jahren mit „Celtic-New-Age“-Hits zu einer Weltberühmtheit wurde? Warum ist sie verschwunden? Ist sie noch aktiv? Wird sie eines Tages zurückkommen? Diese Fragen beschäftigen ihre Anhänger seit mindestens 10 Jahren, als die Sängerin sich entschied, sich von der Öffentlichkeit, goldenen Schallplatten und Zeremonien zu entfernen. Es begann Anfang 2000, als sie nach ihrer Teilnahme am Soundtrack des Films „Der Herr der Ringe“ für „May it be“, eine ihrer Kollaborationen, für einen Oscar nominiert wurde. Seine künstlerischen Anfänge gehen auf die Band Clannad zurück, die er 1970 mit Onkeln, Brüdern und Cousins ​​in Irland gründete. Im Laufe der Zeit, bereits in den Achtzigern, nahm seine Solokarriere unter der Leitung von Produzent Nicky Ryan und seiner Frau Fahrt auf. Roma Ryan, der ihr offizieller Texter wurde. Mit The Watermark erlangte er 1988 dank Songs wie Orinoco Flow und Miss Clare Remembers internationale Anerkennung. Ihr Vorschlag zwischen New Age, keltischen Arrangements, Pop, Synthesizern und markanten Stimmschichten fand schnell ein riesiges Publikum. Vermutlich hat Enya bis 2016 mehr als 90 Millionen weltweit verkaufte Tonträger und insgesamt fast 100 Millionen Euro angehäuft. In diesem Jahr stufte Forbes sie als drittreichste Frau Irlands ein. With the turn of the millennium, Enya dedicated herself to life at home, but not just any home. In 1996, she acquired a castle in her native country, valued at almost 4 million euros. There, the singer lives in the company of a troop of 10 cats . Es ist eine Residenz aus der viktorianischen Zeit in Killiney , einer Stadt in der Nähe von Dublin, bekannt als Manderley Castle . Ursprünglich hieß es zu Ehren von Königin Victoria selbst „Victoria Castle“. Enya zog es jedoch vor, es beim Namen des Herrenhauses aus dem Roman Rebecca zu nennen. Dort hat sie eine bereits seit Jahren gezählte Gefangenschaft verewigt, die durch ein traumatisches Erlebnis in den Neunzigern ausgelöst wurde, als sich ein italienischer Fan nach seinem Rauswurf aus der elterlichen Bar der Sängerin mit einem Foto von Enya in den Hals stach. , in Gweedore.

Seitdem hält sich Eithne Pádraigín Ní Bhraonái (richtiger Name der Künstlerin) von Überbelichtung fern: Sie gibt kaum Interviews und ihre Beteiligung an sozialen Netzwerken ist gleich Null, mit sporadischen Posts, die nicht einmal von ihr stammen. Laut Yahoo kennen nicht einmal ihre Nachbarn Enyas Routine, die kaum gesehen wird und nur mit ihrem Servicepersonal interagiert. Seine Ruhe wurde auch 2011 nicht beeinträchtigt, als sein Song Only Time nach dem Angriff auf die Twin Towers am 11. September ein Revival (Rückkehr) erlebte. Als Dankeschön spendete sie später die Tantiemen des Tracks an die New York Firefighters Widows und Waisenverein. 2015 veröffentlichte er sein neuestes Studiowerk nach sieben Jahren des Schweigens: Dark Sky Island, ein Album, das als seine Rückkehr in die Branche angekündigt wurde, aber das war trotz des internationalen Widerstands nur ein erster Schritt (bisher hat Enya auf Gälisch gesungen , Irisch, Englisch, Latein, Spanisch und Japanisch). Ihre Anhänger müssen vorerst weiter auf neue Songs warten, während der rätselhafte Mythos der Künstlerin weiter wächst. „Ich habe nie versucht, ein Rätsel zu schaffen“, warnte Enya in einem ihrer jüngsten Interviews, die teilweise von Vanity Fair wiedergegeben wurden. Auf die Frage nach dem Grund hinter dem Geheimnis, das sie umgibt, sagte die Irin ihrem Stil treu: „Es ist nur so, dass ich immer eine sehr unabhängige Person war. Read the full article

Man sent 268 messages to former friend after row over dog – Donegal Daily

Man sent 268 messages to former friend after row over dog – Donegal Daily

A man who sent a barrage of threatening texts to his former friend when he said he could not look after his dog.

Andrew McCulloch was before Letterkenny Circuit on a charge of harassing Gerard Devine over a five-day period in July 2019.

A total of 268 messages, both written and audio, were sent by McCulloch to Mr Devine, the court heard.

In a bizarre series of texts, McCulloch threatened to stamp on Mr Devine’s partner’s dog and then rape his partner.

McCulloch had given Mr Devine €600 to buy a van, with Mr Devine indicating that the money would be in lieu of rent.

McCulloch was staying in a house owned by Mr Devine in Raphoe and did not pay rent, the court was told.

The barrage began when Mr Devine told him that he could not look after his dog.

McCulloch threatened to burn the van on Mr Devine’s driveway.

He told Mr Devine: “If the Belfast lads get you, it will be hospital.” He added in another message: “Next time I see you, I’ll put you on the floor and stamp on your face.”

In another, he told Mr Devine: “No work with broken legs.”

Mr Devine did not respond and McCulloch said in a message about Ms Clarke: “If you don’t reply, I’ll have her killed.”

The litany continued with McCulloch saying: “Amanda’s house looks well flammable” while he threatened to stamp on Ms Clarke’s dog, Coco.

Another message threatened that an MMA fighter would be brought to attack Mr Devine and Ms Clarke.

One of the most disturbing messages sent by McCulloch saw him threaten to rape Ms Clarke.

In a victim impact statement, Ms Clarke said she became scared to leave her house.

“I was living in fear of my life when he threatened to burn my house down and rape me,” she said.

“It took a long time for me to get out of Letterkenny. I still have not settled into my new house, but it is better than living in fear.”

Garda Cathriona Flynn said Mr Devine believed that he was in danger and moved the van to a friend’s house as he believed McCulloch could burn it.

McCulloch was on bail when he failed to appear before the court in November, 2015 and a European Arrest Warrant was subsequently executed.

In an interview following his arrest on July 17, 2019, McCulloch admitted sending the messages. He told Gardaí that he believed the messages had not delivered.

McCulloch has 12 previous convictions in Northern Ireland, one in England and one in Hungary.

Three of his convictions relate to criminal damage with the others consisting of cannabis cultivation, motoring offences and dishonesty offences.

McCulloch took to the witness box to ‘apologise profusely’ for his actions.

“I wasn’t in control of what I was saying,” he said. “They were the ravings of a highly-intoxicated man and I meant no real harm. I must have got angrier and hence the barrage.”

McCulloch had been planning to open a gastro pub in County Clare, but that aim has been shelved.

He has been a working prisoner while in custody, the court heard. At one stage during the Covid-19 pandemic, McCulloch was locked upon for 30 days with no access to recreation facilities.

Barrister for McCulloch, Mr Niall O’Neill BL, said his client went on ‘an alcohol-fuelled rant’. “A sinister element was not a part of this,” he said.

McCulloch has been in prison since December, 2019.

Mr O’Neill said his client doesn’t have a place to live at the moment.

“He has a boat in Gweedore,” he said.

Passing sentence, Judge Aylmer said the harassment occurred in the context of a dispute between two men who had been friends.

“It included threats to kill the other and vile threats in relation to his partner,” Judge Aylmer said. “It is certainly a very serious offence. It is clear that the offence had a very serious impact on the victims, particularly Ms Clarke.”

Judge Aylmer said the incident merited a starting point before considering mitigation. McCulloch, he said, made admissions, co-operated with the investigation and followed up with a guilty plea. McCulloch has spent a lot of time in prison since 2003.

“I accept that he is genuinely remorseful and quite embarrassed,” Judge Aylmer said. “His behaviour was fuelled by alcohol and the offences were committed while he was in a very intoxicated state.”

The sentence was reduced to one of three years in prison with credit for all time served in custody.

McCulloch was ordered to have no contact with Mr Devine or Amanda Clarke for ten years.

Judge Aylmer directed that McCulloch not go within 500 metres of the residence of the victims.

Ordinarily, McCulloch would have been free to walk out of court on Friday due to the duration of his incarceration, as he is in custody on foot of a European Arrest Warrant for other matters, he was returned to Cloverhill Prison.

His extradition has been sought to Northern Ireland and a hearing on that matter has been scheduled.

The previous week, Judge Aylmer refused a bail; application, saying he was concerned that McCulloch was a flight risk.

“It is all somewhat academic as the accused with remain in custody in any event,” Judge Aylmer said.

A poem by Michael Donaghy

The Natural and Social Sciences

We come to Straidkilly to watch the tide go out. A man is loading a wicker basket With small, complicated pink crabs. ”Have we missed it,” we ask, “the tide?” And he, with sincere assurance, “It’ll be back.”

A girl inspects an upside-down bike On the road to Tubbercurry. I stop to help but she rights it on its wheels, Shoves off, ticking in the light rain.

Musicians in the kitchen, Sunday morning in Gweedore. An American with a tape recorder and a yellow notebook. ”What was the name of that last one?” The piper shrugs and points to the dark corner. ”Ask my father.” The American writes “Ask my father.”

Michael Donaghy (1954-2004)

Michael Donaghy died on this day, 2004.

Have you decided on a new last name for Vic or is it just ambiguous now?

Vic's new last name is Gweedore, but that's also just the name of the Town she's from. The fact that she no longer has a REAL last name is actually plot relevant to her. As far as she knows, though, that's just because her MIA dad's got a weird ass last name. That's as far as she wants to know, too

In this canon, Faeries don't have last names. There's not really a need for it...!

This is Gola Island, off the coast of Gweedore, Donegal. Back in the day my parents brought the brood over to Gola when it was uninhabited. The only conversation I remember was about the fact that it was completely overrun with wild rabbits, pink eyes and pink genitals, (the genitals weren't mentioned) dying of Myxomatosis, which was induced by the state as a way of controlling their numbers. Somewhere along the line, this will come up in Maggie's conversation. I mean, come on, it's so sad, and so funny. Mixa-my-toesies. The poor wee rabbits. Perfect for Maggie.
